Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

The printer has can present a net home page for many setup and status functions; the default password is its serial number. Thank goodness for wps, entering a password on the lcd would have been problematic. It does well with handling the main and rea...  Read More

This is resolved by turning off and restarting. I like that it has both a back feeder and a flatbed scanner.

Great so far for a beginner artist. About the size of a file folder label.

Photo printing is very good, though slow on best photo mode. The (slightly) higher upfront cost of this printer paid for itself within 2-3 months.



Cons

Used ink is drained into a thin, maybe a 1/4 inch foam sponge at the base of the printer. If this sponge fills your printer stops working. One minute it prints from the tray, the next from the rear tray.

I have gone through 7 reems of paper and have not even noticed any drop in ink.

Price


It offers great value for money, and i really love this printer.


I can't think of any reason why a page feeder would be a necessity for a home printer, so save yourself some money and space.


75oz of black ink, $11 for the 70ml of color ink.


Replacement ink from canon on amazon seems extremely reasonably priced ($17 for 170ml / 5.

Packaging/appearance


Suggestions that envelopes and photo paper would be put in the cassette seemed ridiculous for my needs.

Competitiveness


Like this printer better than any of the other brands that i have had


Unfortunately, support for that printer disappeared from my computer's operating system, at which point i reluctantly switched ...  Read More


A major consumer magazine down-rated this model compared to others costing significantly more, and oft times having fewer featu...  Read More
